WHAT IT REALLY MEANS.
Did you ever think what it
Nally means to. be a " tramp ?"
Noborne, no friends, no work, no
chance, nobody in all the wide
world to care whether you live,
or die in the gutters like a dog,
No Heaven for such rags to in-
herit; no decent grave to hide
them out of sight; no opportunity
to be anything, and no stand
stretched out to give the greeting
or the good-bye, of love. No-
body t'Ci feel an interest in you,
whether your bones ache with
cold or your skin cracks with
fever. No spot in all the !world
to call your own, not even the
mud wherein your wandering
footsteps leaves its fleeting mark,
no prospect ahead,and no unbrok-
en link to bind you to the past.
A name likti a curse to blight
every hope of manhood, antra re-
putation like a ball and chain to
your log, to hinder the way to
any good accomplishment. I toll
you when wo sit right down to it
and figure out what it really
means to be a tramp, .1 guess we
will not find it so easy to with-
hold a piece of bread and a cup of
coffee the next time one calls at
our door.

will have nothing to do with "cure-alls"
medicines that are advertised to cure
everything from a chilblain to a brok-
en neck. Read the list of diseases that
Dr. Pierce's olden Medical Discovery
will cure: Affections of the throat and
lungs, incipient, disordered liver, sore
threat, bronchitis, asthma, catarrh, ul-
cers, tumors, and swellings caused by
scrofula and bad blood; fever and drop•
sy. This seems like a cure-all but it is
not. Tbisgreat "Discovery" will really
cure all these complaints simply because
it purifies the blood upon which they
depend and builds up the weak places

'DRINK TO PLEASE ME.'
'!'ire day had been most beauti-
ful; now that the evening had
closed in, it seemed more lovely
than ever; the moon had risen and
all nature was dressed in splendor
The Gray's cottage was brilliant-
ly lighted and draped for a bridal
party. In one parlor sat Ella
Bray and Frank Baker, who were
soon to take the marriage vow,
while the other parlor was filled
with invited guests and the gen-
erous display of' weddirig presents.
At last, the folding doors were
thrown open, the ininivter took
his place, and, with a few brief
words and promises:to love and
honor, Ella Gray and Frank 13ak,
cr stood before the company its
husband and with. After the
congratulations, they all repaired
to the dining -room where supper
was served. As the wine was
passed around, Frank pushed his
glass to one side without tasting
it. .
'Won't -volt drink your swine,
Frank?'
No, I would'sfather not.'
^Please do, just this one glass,
the rest all drink theirs.'
'No Ella, that was mother's dy-
ing request that I should never
taste any intoxicating drinks.'
'And you promised?'
'Yee; just as she was dying, I
made her this promise and I do
not wish to break it now.' •
'But just one glass can certain-
ly do no harm; take it to please
Inc., •
The pleading looks of his young
bride touched hint; and he took
the glass, raised iL to his lips,
then set it down without tasting
it and turned away.
'Why won't' you drink it,
Frank? One glass cannot hurt
you; so please take this one;' and
she handed !sial the glas.
Without a word he took the
Plass and would have drank, blit'
,just as he was puttink the wine to
his lips, old Uncle Henry arose
from his seat and cried, 'Stop!' all
eyes wore turned towards him.
'Please, Frank, let Me tell you
my life's story before you take
}-our'wine: then see if Ella will
urge you to drink.! I was once
a ele'k in an extensive drug store
with..'1 large salary, bright pros-
pects, and a heart as light and
free as the wind that blows ;
thought I was and ever wetild be
the happiest man alive. _But
what crushed my spirits, blighted
my f airest hopes and dragged me
down to what I am iow—a poor
miserable, broken down old luau?
'What was it?. shall I tell yon?
It was' a glass of wine handed
round at a bridal party, handed
to me by the girl I loved, and she
was once my wife. .Drink, lien-
ry-, to please me, was her smiling
request, and, I drank k ; I could not
resist the pleading look and words
but drank the wine to its dregs,:uid
from that moment I have been a
ruined. man. And not my life
alone, but the life of the girl I
married was made miserable by
that one glass of wine. 'Drink,
to please me,' is what lila t my
wife's brightest hopes, and drag-
ged her down to an curly grave;
'Drink, Henry, to please me,' is
what did all this. Now, Ella, Will
you urge Frank to take his wine ?

wet with tears, and Ella was sob-
bing like a child; but when she
could :ofntnaud her voice so as to
speak she promised that she
would never ask Fronk to drink
another glass of wine, and she eve
er after kept her word. The wine
was taken from the table, and
she never set it before her guests
again.
.THTtY "MEAN BUSINESS."
For many y ears the manufacturers
of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy have
offered, in good faith, 8500 reward for
a case of Natal Catarrh which they
cannot cure. The remedy is sold by
druggists at only 60 cents. This wond-
erful remedy h as fairly attained a world-
wide reputation. If you have dull,
heavy headache, obstruction of the
nasal passages, discharges falling from
the head into the throat, sometimes
profuse, watery, and acrid, at others,
thick, tenacious, (~imucous, purulent,
bloody and putrid ; if the eyes are weak,
watery and inflamed; if there is ring-
ing in the ears, deafness, hacking or
coughing to clear the throat, expectora-
tion of the offensive matter, together
with scabs from ulcers, the voice being
changed and has a nasal twang ; the
breath offensive ; smell and taste im-
paired; sensation of dizziness, with
mental depression, a hacking cough,
and general debility, you are suffering
from nasal catarrh. The more com-
plicated your disease, the greater the
number and diversity of symptoms.
Thousands of cases annually, without
manifesting half of the above symptoms,
result in consumption, and end in the
grave. No disease is so common, more
deceptive and Brous, less under-
stood, or more tin -successfully treated
by physicians.
B I)L 1' SCARED TRAMPS.
One of the train hands tells a
wonderful story in connection
with the accident oii the Northern
Railway near Newmarket, yester-
day. He says that on his train
sitting on the drnwheads between
the first and second cars were two
tramps stealing a ride. He knew
they were there, but did not dis-
turb them. When the trains
same in sight of each other every-
body saw at a glance that a collis-
ion was unavoidable and jumped
for their lives. The tramps be-
tween the two box 'cars couldn't
see and couldn't very well have
jumped if they had seen. The
gentleman ‘v1 o tells the story says
that just as he struck the ground
lie thought of' them and said to
himself, "There are two tramps
who will l e ground into mince-
meat anyway." A second later
the crash came, the trains piled
over each other, the air was tilled
with fragments of wood and iron
and smashed freight cars. Out
from the midst of the derbia the
two ti mills sailed as though shot
from a i-:,tapult. Together they
described a half circle that carried
theta over the fence. Side by
side they struck the ground with
a thud. A moment they- sift half
stunned, another moment they
were on their feet, then with one
wild look at the train they start-
ed „oil' across the field, leading for
die bush as fast as they (^wild run.
Evidently they thought it was a
new scl:elhe the bouncing tramps.

The best medical authoritiesaoknowl
edge the value of Ayre's Pills, and pre-
scribe them with the utmost confidence,
as the most effectual remedy for diseas-
es caused by derangement, of the stom-
ach, liver, and bowels.

Two steamers of' the New York
and Copenhagen line, the Thing -
valla and this• t' ciser, came into
collision near Sable Island on the

72 passengers and 33 of her crew
were drowned.
A few days ago Robert, son of
Sergt. Adams, of London police
force, went out to visit in Dela-
ware for at day or two. While
sitting in a blacksmith's shop
there a boy accidently discharged
a gun, wounding him in the arm
and side. An artery was severed,
but prompt medical attendance
saved his life. .

Want of Sleep
Is sending thousands annually to the
insane asylum ; and the doctors say this
trouble is alarmingly on the increase.
The usual remedies, while they may
give temporary relief, are likely to do
more harm than good. What is needed
is an Alterative and Blood -purifier.
Ayer -'s Sarsaparilla is incomparably
the best. It corrects those disturbances
in the circulation which cause sleepless.
ness, gives increased vitality, and re-
stores the nervous system to a healthful
condition.
Bev. T.G. A. Cote, agent of the Mass.
Home Missionary Society, writes that
his stomach was out of order, his sleep
very often disturbed, and some Im-
purity of the blood manifest ; but that
a perfect cure was•obtained by the use
of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Trederick W. Pratt, 424 Washington
street, Boston, writes: " My daughter
was prostrated with nervous debility.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla restored her to
health,"
William F. Bowker, Erie, Pa., was
cured of nervousness and sleeplessness
by taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla for about
two months, during which time his
weight increased over twenty pounds.
